What uni (in NSW) would be good for a commerce degree considering I am not exactly maths orientated? I’ll do it, just as long as im not constantly inundated with it. BTW I am planning to do BCom (liberal studies - doing psyc) – only offered in UNSW & USYD (as far as I know of). If that helps...but I am flexiable, cheers

I heard psyc had a fair bit too? I plan on doing HR. What about Sydney? I heard it has its fair share of maths modules/units.

Yeah theres like no maths beyond adding pretty much. Maybe an occasional divide lol

I think Accountings probably the best major if you actually suck at maths

Accounting and Economics have very basic maths and algebraic equations..

... what's hard will be QMA where you need to use your algebra, calculus, diff/integration, and then learn new ways to do those, matrices, sequence and series, etc... and there's no Table of Integrals! But on the upside, (at least thus far), there's no sin/cos/tan!

do you know how to subtract, add, multiply, divide and take square roots?

I'm not maths minded, and in usyd the main problems you will encounter (in terms of core units) is with ECMT1010 (and now finc, which i cant comment on). I didn't take maths for the hsc at all, yet got a credit. It's not that difficult as long as you stay alert.

Marketing is the best non-maths major :)
